________________General Description

The MAX847 is a complete power-supply and monitor-
ing system for two-way pagers or other low-power digi-
tal communications devices. It requires few external
components. Included on-chip are:

• A 1-cell input, 80mA output, synchronous-rectified

boost DC-DC regulator with a digitally controlled
+1.8V to +4.9V output

• Three low-noise linear-regulator outputs

• Three DAC-controlled comparators for software-

driven 3-channel A/D conversion

• SPI™-compatible serial interface

• Reset and low-battery (LBO) warning outputs

• Charger for NiCd, NiMH, lithium battery, or storage

capacitor for RF PA power or system backup

• Two 1.8

(typical) serial-controlled open-drain

MOSFET switches

An evaluation kit for the MAX847 (MAX847EVKIT) is
available to aid in design and prototyping.

Pin Configuration appears at end of data sheet.
